Radhika, I went through all the commits on master and 4.3 branch and made sure I ported everything
to RTD.
We are good to go up to your latest commit on Feb 6th: 58ec1d0091f80845412b42543191acc1e976383b
There are some issues with the content, I see a missing file. So I ported what I could and
left some.
So from my standpoint we can switch to RTD now for all docs (master and 4.3 content is all
in).
The RN are ready, the install guide is ready, most of the dev guide is ready and I should
be done today.
That leaves the admin guide to format but I will start today and should be done before 4.3
is voted.
Bottom line all commits have been migrated to RTD and .rst format.

switching to .rst ? I am willing to help clean up the period when we have a few left over
docbook commits that need to be merged in .rst. But we do need to have date at which point
we make docbook "obsolete". I have already started going through your last 10 commits to make
sure the content is in the new format.
